When the theme parks close for the night, what do you all do? One thing I like to do is go to Downtown Disney for a few hours. Also, I like to go to Fantasia Gardens Mini Golf. Some of the hotels are very nice to see at night, for example, Disney's Boardwalk. Nights are so cool, even without the parks.

HOORAY FOR DISNEY!! WOOT! graemlins/muscles.gif graemlins/mickey.gif graemlins/muscles.gif

Have dinner at another resort and explore that resort. One our favourite after-park experiences was exploring AKL and then having dinner at Boma.

I enjoy going to the Boardwalk for dinner then just walking around and checking out the street performers that are often out there. Its just such a nice laid back feeling there, that makes it easy to wind down after a long day at the parks.

AHH, you just bought me back memories, When i was a kid, i remember after the park closes, my parents and my siblings and I used to stop at the Fort Wilderness place where you make your own pizza and bring it back to our room...

We, now depending on the type of day we had and the time it closes, if the kids are still hype, the kids go swimming at the resort pools, while my hubby and i relax at the Hot Tub!!! Sometimes we simply walk the resorts grounds...Otherwise, right to bed and get moving again the next morning for another day at the park!!! graemlins/crazy.gif

We enjoy having dinner and then heading back to
our resort - love walking around the grounds and
stopping at the gift shop. Sometimes we are so
tired at the end of the day that we just want to
crash. graemlins/sleepin.gif

We always stay in the parks till the last minute so it is usually pretty late or early depending on how you look at it. We go back and play in the arcade, swim, or just crash.

We usually don't too more than explore our resort or swim after the parks. Sometimes we'll make the trip to Downtown Disney. smile.gif

We usually stay until the park has cleared of most people then leisurely walk to the exit. We end most days at the Magic Kingdom so we ride the small launch back to our resort, walk along the beach, change our clothes, then go swimming. When we have been off season and the parks close early, we go to Downtown Disney.

I'm going to move this over to the Nightlife forum. That's where all of the Disney night-owls hang out. graemlins/mickey.gif

Parks?

You mean THEY HAVE THEME PARKS at Walt Disney World?!?!?!

Translation: I spend most of my time at Disney resorts... I LOVE them all!

Since i'm staying at The Contemporary Resort our next trip, i'm going to go to Epcot every night after the other parks close (short monorail ride away from the hotel!). It should be awesome!

Traditionally in the past, we spent our time after the parks close at Downtown Disney like everyone else.

If we didn't eat dinner in the parks, we like to check out one of the resturants in the resorts, then head over to DD, shop, etc. Then head over to PI and see who's playing jazz and/or go to the comedy warehouse. graemlins/thumbsup.gif

Going back to the resort, watching "The Electrical Water Pageant" and going in the pool for a night swim.
